Ingredients

12 pieces Medjool dates
4 tablespoons Cream cheese
2 teaspoons Maple syrup
3 tablespoons Chopped walnuts
1 pinch Sea salt
2 tablespoons Pistachios (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

1. Prepare the dates by making a lengthwise cut down the center of each one, being careful not to cut all the way through. Remove the pits and set the dates aside.

Step 2

2. In a small mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, maple syrup, and a pinch of sea salt. Mix well until smooth and creamy.

Step 3

3. Fold the chopped walnuts into the cream cheese mixture, ensuring they are evenly distributed.

Step 4

4. Using a small spoon or piping bag, fill each date with the maple-nut cream cheese mixture. Gently press the sides of the date around the filling to secure it.

Step 5

5. If desired, sprinkle crushed pistachios on top of each filled date for added crunch and color.

Step 6

6. Arrange the dates on a serving plate and serve immediately or refrigerate until ready to enjoy.
